This
zip file contains python 2.7.2 for kindle.
It can be installed using launchpad's customupdates feature, or simply unzipped under /mnt/us. If you unzip in another location, you should edit the included file pythonenv.
To run python, source the file /mnt/us/python/pythonenv and run the binary /mnt/us/python/usr/bin/python.
The package actaully contains the Debian Wheezy packages python-minimal, python2.7-minimal, python2.7 and libssl1 (rebuilt to use older libc).
